Title: A method for determining deviation in alignment of a camera in a vehicle
Inventor: Bellary Madhusudan Rao
IPC: H04N17/00
Filed: 2021-08-05
Abstract: A method and system for determining a deviation in position of a camera in a vehicle comprises receiving images 2 captured from the camera, which is positioned in a slot in the vehicle, at a control unit. The control unit compares images received from the camera with one or more reference images 1 and determines a deviation in a body portion of the vehicle as visible in the images from the camera 2a from with the body part of the car as visible in the reference images 1a. The control unit indicates a deviation in the alignment of the camera based on the determination. The deviation may be determined by comparing alignments of edges detected in the images or by counting the number of pixels of the visible body portion in the images. The ideal images may be generated based on computer aided modelling of the body. The control unit may generate a recommendation for a correction based on a detected misalignment where the correction may comprise a physical realignment of the camera or a calibration of the camera.
